Thats a man with hair extensions.

Pulled and cleaned my carbs since we're finally getting to spring in northern Wisconsin. Shop closed before I could run and get a new battery though. Oh well, tomorrow it is.

Question though, my grandfather had a '74 or '75 Suzuki GT250 that's been sitting for over a decade now. The last time he did anything to it he put brake fluid into the oil or something, no one in my family actually knows and he's been dead for 10 years so I can't ask him, how hard would it be to strip it all down and clean it out to get it running again? It's a little 2-stroke that's pretty much the same as my bike, '74 Yamaha RD250, so I know how to pull it apart, but the cleaning, also I heard the engine might have seized or something. Once again, no one in my family knows for sure because they don't pay attention to anything other than themselves.

Also, he had a '50's Harley 50cc that still ran, I'm guessing if I drain the fluids, clean the carbs, and fresh gas would be the right place to start getting it running again?

>>15022310
>when you think you're really funny but you're actually brown and runny.

>>15022279
if you cant use your right ankle to brake, it might not be such a good idea for you to get a motorcycle.
other than that, the cbr250 is well liked by many.
you came to 4chan to ask this though... so, transvestites do seem to really enjoy the vibration that honda's 250cc single puts out. if you enjoy getting rammed in the ass, look into purchasing the solo dildo seat that turns the pillion into a mount for a swappable dildo. you can fit 3 dildos up to 8 inches under the pillion, or you can use the luggage rack (sold seperately) to store more varieties. for more info, google 'goatse.honda' for our website, store location, and hours.

its a bitch and generally better left to guys who know how to do it properly.
if your rim isnt all fucked up you should be able to get it spinning true again

>>15022337
Does it have brakes?
Do you have to pedal to start it?
Do you neglect to put the filter on the carb(s) and get two stroke gas sprayed on your knees when you hit sick jumps?

>>15022328
honestly i hardly use my rearbrake cause im too lazy to loosen it up, i usually ride with my foot under it like the shifter since the slightest nudge locks up the rear tighter than gsxniggers when someone mentions how shit they are

>>15022279
>Unfortunately I'm kinda stuck with Single system ABS bikes since I can't use my right ankle to brake.
Looked into getting a bike with LBS? Some apply the rear automatically if you hit the front.

>>15022279
You can modify a bike to have a lever on the left handlebar for the rear brake. They're typically used by stunters but I think it would work well if you can't use your right ankle. It might take a while to learn with 2 levers for your left hand but with a little determination you should be fine.

Also the front brake does the majority of the braking so it would be feasible to ride without a rear brake if you have to.

>>15022365
well, the electric start doesnt work so i have to pushstart it, it drops out of gear and pops into neutral when you hit above 7k revs and the front tire is pretty fucking busted

on another note i prooved that you can go straight on a roundabout if you go 140

>>15022370
Yeah sorry that's what I meant by Single system. Had a bunch of people advise me to look for those.

>>15022382
ah, a shitbike indeed

>>15022364
I can feel a headshake and can see the unevenness in the wheel if I look at it while rolling. I don't see any big dents in the rim though. Should I try to save it or just get new wheels?

>>15022392
probably just unaligned wheels or even worse it could just be loose

>>15020818

Sorry this literally always happens. I was stuck on the 91 for an hour then 30 mins down the 15. Inland Empire bro, if you're still here I live in Lake Elsinore

>>15022400
I've lifted the front end up to feel for any play. There was no noticeable play or wobbliness in the bearings or wheel mounting.

When I was changing the tire I spun the rim around a bit and could tell by eye that it had some lateral runout.

I don't suppose twisted forks would cause any headshake would they? They would remain stationary in relation to the bike so it wouldn't make sense even if they were crooked.

pic related its what i ride in the meanwhile

>>15022392
put it on a stand and get a better look at it, if the rim isnt jacked up it should be ok to retrue, you can try it yourself but you need to be damn sure you get it centered when you do it, make some feelers or something to do it

I found it guys! Got myself this beautiful 2005 zx6r yesterday. 26 000km meticulously maintained stock and my god is it a great bike!

I'm looking at getting new levers. The throw on the clutch is pissing my off and wondering what you guys would recommend? My 650r came with some cheap Chinese ones and they worked well but I wouldn't mind getting some high quality ones. Are asv and pazzo worth the money? Also wondering about mirrors. This winter I'm going to have fun with cosmetics ie: fender eliminator taillight and flush signals. Where can I order this kind of stuff? This is my first bike I plan on doing stuff to. I don't need any more power yet but I was reading some power commanders help in the mid range which I'd be interested in.
My god is this bike clean though! I'm absolutely in love with it

imo levers are disposable. the expensive ones may flip up in a crash but will still get scratched. the chinese adjustable ones may break off but they're $20 a pair, and in a crash there is damage that is much more expensive.

this guy makes quality stuff for cheap. there are listings with included signals.

I was under the impression that you can just slap some TKC80's on it and it'd be just as good as the S?

youd be much better off getting a newer KTM exc bike for on and offroad fun or converting a WR450

HIDs are awesome. the fender kit will have led signals and they're easy to wire with bullet connectors. splice it, bare some wire, connect it and heatshrink it if you want.
PCV is power commander 5. its what lets you add fuel maps.

>>15022606
>skid plate doesn't cover the exhaust pipes at all
Why are companies so lazy about making good skid plates

>>15022659
Okay thanks! I'm trying to find a kit on that guys page for one for my bike with signals but can't find it. Might just send him a message and see what he tells me. Don't I need a resistor so the LEDs don't blink fast or something? Also found a mod to have both headlights on but I doubt that'd work with the HIDs. I always hated people telling me I have a headlight out and it'll be no different with this bike. Can't wait to spend a bit of money and really make this bike mine

The clutch also feels kinda shitty and I'm wondering if that's due to the lever or the adjustment. Seems it's just a pedal bike style twist adjust. What's the proper way to do that? Last bike was already pretty much set for me

i thought the ninjas front stock blinkers were flush, no? if so, you must be talking about an integrated tail light if you want rear flush blinkers. they can get expensive. anyway here's all of that dude's zx6r products (he doesn't sell integrated tail lights):
http://www.ebay.com/sch/m.html?_odkw=&_ssn=creese1&_armrs=1&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2046732.m570.l1313.TR12.TRC2.A0.H0.Xzx6r.TRS0&_nkw=zx6r&_sacat=0

>resistor
yeah sometimes you NEED a new relay for the LEDs to work. other times, the relay is not needed, but the flash rate is increased. i like the faster rate but my bike needed the relay. here's the one i bought. it should work for you if the plug is the same. or you could splice it.
https://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/flashers-load-resistors/lf1-s-flat-universal-motorcycle-electronic-flasher/787/

>clutch
the clutch should be a smooth even pull. sometimes they can be "on or off" feeling though. that's just the nature of the bike. you can change the clutch plates and get softer springs if needed, which is easy, but i haven't looked into how soft of a spring you can use and still have a functioning clutch. or just live with it because all springs get soft eventually. you can get adjustable levers which will change where the bite is. easy to install.

No idea, I'm thinking it's a lock or a battery tended cause I'm 80% sure the battery is under the left number plate. Could be wrong. But yeah, not going out on weekends adds up, money is slowly accumulating bro. This summer aught to be it.
Fuck this rainy weather tho, the pollen has been aggravating me badly.

>>15023205
hurr hurr hurr. i live out in the country, so imagine fields with horses and cows and shit like that. my parents live next door. they have some chickens and a lot of cats roaming around.
my house has a big field for a front yard, and i have no driveway, so i made a little carport for my duke. i have paving stones laid out that i park on, and there is a camping collapsable sun shade thing that covers my bike and tool box. it's a nice little setup. my bike gets a lot of mud on it though. eh. oh well. i like it.

Never assume an intersection is clear.

>>15024202
>should be watching for idiots running across the road when the light just turned green.
Or pedestrians could be less retarded, its really hard to get hit by a car nevermind a motorcycle.

>>15024202
even with a green i always assume some idiot timed it up perfectly to bone me
>downshift, make some noise and prepare to wot out of a collision

>>15024208
Arguing about what some idiot *should* have done will never fix your bike and the injuries you incur. You're the only one responsible for your safety.

>>15024211
Sure it will, you belittle the idiot and follow them home, make them pay for the damages caused to your motorcycle due to their stupidity.

>>15024214

>what is insurance
if i run someone over he's deefinitely in for a night at the er.
assist him as law demands, then rape him with fees

Thats right, beat the fucker senseless afterwards, make them know who is in charge of the situation.
